"Ah, thank you."

Because of the mask, Xi Lan's voice was a little muffled, but to the employees, it seemed to be commonplace.

"Leave the action fund with me for safekeeping." She was still alert to everything around her and did not let her guard down.

Xi Lan also noticed that when she was observing the surroundings, she could also notice that the eyes of the people around her were looking at the two of them.

All the scrutinizing and malicious looks that could send chills down one's spine were directed at them.

Especially there were children younger than her, who were staring at Xilan's tail with shining eyes.

Xi Lan of course noticed this gaze and subconsciously looked back.

Those eyes, filled with inquiry and curiosity, were now looking at her tail that was wagging back and forth.

There is only this one child around.

Xi Lan didn’t know what mood she was in. She didn’t say much and just walked over.

From her intuitive point of view, she did not sense any malice from this child who was much younger than her.

The child, noticing the two strangers walking towards him, subconsciously took a few steps back and was about to turn around and leave.

She had on her face what looked like a low-quality mask that didn't even seem to fit her exactly the right size.

Seeing that the other party was about to leave, Xi Lan quickly spoke, using her own advantages to attract the child who was ready to run away at any time.

"Wait, dear boy, do you want to touch my tail? I have some candy here."

She tried hard to recall the attitude that Feicui had used before... which should have been used to coax her, and Xilan directly used it on the little guy not far away.

It seems that his height is less than half of mine.

Even the clothes on his body looked tattered and old, and Xi Lan could even see the patches on them.

"Come, there are some delicious food here." Xi Lan showed patience and looked at the other party friendly.

Although wearing a mask, the little fox didn't know whether his friendly appearance would be conveyed.

It's like taming a kitten...

Suddenly, Xi Lan saw a child who walked over quietly, with short silver-gray hair mixed with a few strands of red highlights.

I suddenly remembered the bloggers who used cat strips to lure cats that I had seen on Star’s terminal.

My behavior shouldn't... count, right?

At least she didn't have the idea of ​​luring the other person back.

The slightly dirty little hand was touching the milk-flavored candy in her palm.

With his sensitive hearing, he naturally heard the other person swallowing his saliva.

She moved her palm forward a little, perhaps to avoid scaring the other person away, and she was still much more cautious.

But after taking the candy away, the little guy turned his attention to the tail behind Xilan.

"Want to touch?"

The little guy nodded, and just as he was about to reach out to touch it, the tail immediately shook to the other side as if teasing a child.

"Not yet. If you want to touch my tail, you and I have to exchange names."

She spoke righteously, like a little adult.

This caused the employee on the other side, who was keeping a vigilant eye on the surroundings, to laugh quietly.

".....The grandmother next door likes to call me Ye Lina. Is that okay? Can I touch her tail?"

The child in front of him said all this in one breath, and it was obvious that he was bewitched by the well-maintained tail.

"Okay, I'll remember it. You should also remember my name. My name is Xi Lan. Don't forget it."

The tail was hanging down obediently, attracting the little girl named Yelina to touch it.

But when it really came to this, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Especially when she saw her dirty palms, little Ye Lina chose to rub her hands and then wiped them on her clothes.

Then he poked the fur on the tail with his fingertips as if it were a treasure.

The subtle touch made her tilt her head in confusion.

"It feels nothing like the cats I've touched before."

Ye Lina murmured softly, looking at her sister who was not much taller than her and was wearing clothes that looked very comfortable, and confirmed that she did not feel any discomfort.

The thought of running away faded a little.

Xi Lan...what a strange name.

But you still have to remember it.

And there's this kind of fascinating feel.

Well, I will definitely not forget it.

She lightly placed her palm over the tail and stroked it as if it were fur.

Xi Lan, who had risked her tail, had her ears shaking unconsciously.

Fortunately, the mask on her face would not allow the people present to see Xi Lan's current appearance.

It's really a good thing that only this matter was not seen by others.

After Xi Lan pulled out her tail, she looked at the little guy who seemed reluctant to leave and coughed a few times.

Looking at it this way, it seems that the other party is really too thin.

Do you want to feed it?

Before she could say anything, the little guy adjusted himself and stood up again.

"Sister, you followed me like this and let me touch your tail...do you want me to help you with something?"

The little guy tried to make himself look more imposing.

Then Xi Lan patted his little head.

"Yes, come and show me around here. Thank you. I will pay you."

Ye Lina, who had never been touched gently by anyone, was stunned for a moment, then she took a few steps back with her cheeks flushed.

I'm also glad that the other party can't see what I look like now.

After hesitating for a few seconds, the little fellow, who was probably only five or six years old, finally stammered a response.

"Give me a few more candies... or touch your tail... I can take you for a walk."

The young Ye Lina thought confidently.

Anyway, you won’t lose anything.

Chapter 24 Who is the bad boy?

After following this little guy for a while, it was indeed a little better than when Xilan and this unknown female employee just wandered around casually.

At least there won't be such obvious, malicious looks at them.

But as she walked around, Xi Lan's vision was mostly filled with dust. She couldn't imagine what would happen to her if she didn't wear a mask that automatically purified the air.

Her gaze subconsciously fell on the little guy, no, it should be said that it was on the mask on his face that seemed to be of the wrong size.

Xi Lan quietly waved to the female employee walking on the other side, and asked when little Ye Lina was not paying attention.

"The mask she's wearing is different from ours, right?"

"Yes, Xi Lan-chan...well, Xi Lan."

The employee swallowed the title of "Miss" with some difficulty and pronounced the name uncomfortably.

I hope that adult won’t care so much.

After all, she was also equipped with the company's task execution device, and the flashing red light on her chest symbolized that this small device was in working condition.

It also means that the adult behind this is observing this place.

So, she was really working so hard, otherwise she would have treated it as a rare paid vacation.

From time to time, the sound of fingertips tapping the table could be heard through the earphones. If it weren't for the occasional chuckle, the employee would probably have thought that Ms. Feicui had already gone to do other things.

"Just follow her wherever she goes. I'm curious about what interesting things she's going to do next on this planet."

After all, it's her property.

As for the 'rest' time, Feicui also wants to have complete control over what Xilan will do.

Sitting calmly in the chair, you can watch the every move of the fluffy white fox through the high-definition monitor.

Although this kind of surveillance may seem a bit, well, too possessive, it is necessary for Jade.

And she would not interfere with what Xi Lan did.

She just watched from the side. If any accident happened, she could solve it for the little guy and wipe his butt.

But there is a price to pay, so don't blame her for filling in more clauses on the contract.

Jade narrowed her eyes and looked at the little fox who seemed to be chatting with another child, the smile on her lips becoming more and more meaningful.

"Let me see what you can do."

As for the acquisition of this planet, the owner of this planet wants too much and is too greedy...

As for the other reasons...

The acquisition work here is not just the job of the Jade Department.

It's a very simple reason.

In the room where she was alone, she stretched out on the chair for a rare moment.

Her beautiful figure was completely slumped in the chair, looking completely lazy, as if she was spending the most relaxing time of the day observing the little fox's next move.

Xi Lan, who had no idea that her actions had been seen through by others, seemed to have sensed something intuitively.

The light purple eyes glanced at the employee's chest and then blinked in confusion, as if puzzled by his own behavior.

Scratching her hair, Xi Lan turned her head and listened carefully to what little Ye Lina was telling her.

However, the space available for strolling on this planet is limited. If you go outside, there is nothing to see.

There was only flying sand all over the sky and unclear building debris.

"here...."

Xi Lan subconsciously opened her eyes wide, and used her own eyes to reflect everything she saw into her mind.

She had never seen these things.

"Sister, what are you surprised about?"

Little Ye Lina held her hand and looked at Xi Lan, who was standing there, puzzled, as if she was shocked.

It seemed as if he had no idea why the other party was so surprised.

This is obviously a scene they see often.

"....Have you always lived in a place like this?" Although he was already frightened by the state of this planet when he was brought down before.

But some of the worse places were too shocking for the little fox who had never seen such things.

Coupled with what little Ye Lina said, Xi Lan felt even more...unsure of what to say.

All she could do was put more candy in the other person's hand.

It was almost as if all the candies given to him by others were given to this child.

Xi Lan pursed her lips, then took off the mask on her face and also took off Ye Lina's mask.
